With Khalia's and Zan machinations, the group feels more prepared than ever for this fight. Ari's keen eyes adjust quickly to the new size change, and he makes a few preliminary swings with his weapon, and grins with satisfaction. Taviss looks over and nods appreciatingly at his monster hunter friend, then prepares to leap into the trees to do what he does best. Nelson stands there wondering why the heck he's risking his neck for these yo-yos, while Garrick finally makes some noise after being silent for so long (OOC: Welcome back, Kralin!)
As the group spies the three lizardfolk coming through the trees into view, everyone goes into fighting mode, and the battle truly begins!
**********
Here is the battle map of the area. Khalia and Zan's positions are where they are after the surprise round (but before their Round 1 actions), whereas the three lizards are where they will end up AFTER they take their Round 1 action of a double move. Khalia and Zan are the only two that go before the lizards in Round 1, and the only thing they could possibly do to engage them would be a crossbow shot or a spell, so I figured I'd let everyone else see where the lizards will end up when their first actions take place.
Everyone may now post their actions for Round 1. Khalia and Zan, please remember that for your actions the lizards are actually off the top of the map (at a range of about 100 feet), so you probably can either just cast more spells or fire your crossbows.
